Designer Hourglasses

Sandy Jewelry Puts Time on Your Side

Where does the time go? This time of year, it really feels like time is moving faster than usual. The thought that another year has passed raises the question, just where does it go? There are lots of ways to measure time, but the physical sensation of seeing sand in an hourglass is a great visual. There is no lack in the number of products using this theme.

Trend de la Creme put together a terrific blog post with a variety of cool hourglasses.

Here they are, featured in order of the gallery photos:
